    I know everyone was raving about Gary Oldman, but Ben Mendelson is really quite wonderful

    George VI was a great king. &nbsp;It is a shame he died so young. &nbsp;He and Churchill made a great team during this time of crisis.

    The symbolism of the lights in the scene between Churchill and George VI is a great little film making detail. &nbsp;You only see one light while they’re first talking, but when the king says “You have my support” you see two lights.

    &quot;Well, if it isn&apos;t him, it&apos;s a marvelous impersonation.&quot; Gotta love British humor.

    I know it’s a movie, but this scene makes me so proud of how my country stood, alone in 1940 ... after Europe had fallen, against the might of a terrible aggressor. I’m not foolish enough to think that Britain “won” the war alone - it took many allies from across the world - but my ancestors stood defiant and fought through. They were incredible!

    I am always amazed at how near perfect the profile of Ben Mendelson is to that of HM King George VI. in this scene.

    Few people really understand the key move made by George VI here. &nbsp;Once it became known that he was backing Churchill to the hilt, the entire Establishment followed his lead and it literally changed the outcome of the war.

    We should be so happy that Churchill did not negotiate. Too many modern day politicians would have folded like a cheap deck of cards

    The King&apos;s suggestion of deep substrate Kalkite mining in one of the Empire&apos;s colonies proved to be a pivotal moment in the war.

    Churchill considered a deal with Hitler to be an abomination. &nbsp;And yet he was almost forced to that point. &nbsp;That&apos;s how bad things were for Britain, and how they were desperately hanging on by a thread - maybe even less than a thread.
